Hypothetical: You count your games and there are 50 of them.
On closer inspection you realise you have two copies of a game, one for the 360 and one for the PS3.
Would you now say that you have 49 games?
What if you had a PS1 game downloaded on PSN as well as a boxed original? Another subtraction from the collection count?

Do in that second example, a digital and physical version of the same game, would that count for two or one?

You'd have 49
titles
.
There's no real answer I guess. If I had 10 copies of the same game, I'd only really have 1 game to play. But then again I could point to one and say "there's a game" and to another and say "there's a game, too."

I think it depends on if its exactly the same game on the PS3 and the 360. I have the Simpsons Game for the PS2 and the 360. The 360 version has additional levels and different powers for the characters so I consider it a different game from the PS2 version.
